Living Redemption

The Living Redemption Community Development Corporation is a newly founded Harlem staple, born from the commendable community ministry and missionary work of the late evangelist Billy Roberts who founded the Soul Saving Station in Harlem NY in 1942 to serve as a beacon of hope for the city’s residents. Through his community work and activism, he was able to share his testimony to the masses along with the assistance area youths with the purpose of spreading the word and his testimony and reaffirming that through faith, the impossible can be made possible.

Reverend Maurice Winley
Founder

Founded by Reverend Maurice Winley, The Living Redemption Community Development Corporation is an organization that takes a grassroots approach to engaging Harlem’s hard to reach youth in an effort to concentrate on their goals, dreams, and growth and provide the support that is needed to create change. LRCDC believes in utilizing a healing and restorative approach of credible messengers to connect with participants that represent the most underserved populations of Harlem, NY.

Our Approach

Credible Messenger & Transformative Mentoring

Credible messenger mentoring is a transformative mentoring intervention for justice-involved young adults, their life experiences make them particularly suited to support, guide and teach people involved in the criminal and juvenile justice systems. These staffed mentors share their similar experiences with an emphasis on how they overcame it. They are from a similar background, faced the same adversity and are able to equip young people with the tools to change their lives while providing them with a living example of hope and transformation.
Trusted relationships that transforms lives.
The mentorship based approach connects with young people on the journey of healing and inner change by involving them in restorative justice peacekeeping circles. This style of group-based mentoring provides a remedy for the common burn-out that often happens in social service settings.
